Brennan’s skills displayed on the gridiron led to a scholarship at Boston College. His decision to matriculate to BC would prove instrumental for his future career.

As the 1984 NFL Draft approached, Brennan thought he had a halfway decent chance of being an early-round pick. He had played fairly well at BC and his pairing with Flutie helped bring him national attention. However, other receivers at the time, such as Irving Fryar and Kenny Jackson, were getting all the publicity. During the weekend of the draft,...
When he arrived at his first training camp, Brennan briefly thought he was in over his head, especially when he compared himself to the players around him. It didn’t take long for Brennan to prove he belonged. During his rookie season of 1984, he started five games and finished the season second on the team with 35 receptions (in addition to scorin...

They came up short 24-23 and faced another off-season of “what if?” For his part, Brennan hauled in 46 receptio...
With the ‘89 championship loss, the Browns started coming apart. After a 2-7 start to the 1990 season, Carson was fired. Interim coach Jim Shofner didn’t fare much better and managed only a 1-6 record the rest of the way. Brennan saw his catch totals rise to 45 with 568 yards and two scores. Before the 1991 season, Modell hired former Giants defens...
Brennan was looking forward to his ninth season with the Browns entering 1992 before he was summoned to see Belichick. Upon entering the coach’s office, Brennan was blindsided with some unexpected news. Brennan still recalls Belichick’s words that day. After the shock wore off, Brennan was signed by cross-state rival Cincinnati. In nine games with ...
Brennan’s belief in himself as a pro was warranted. Except for Irving Fryar, Brennan and Louis Lipps, every receiver selected in the 1984 draft fell short of expectations. Only Fryar and Lipps had more career receptions than Brennan. Brennan also vastly outperformed ‘84 fourth overall pick Kenny Jackson (334 total catches to Jackson’s 126). While h...
